Today in Japan:
The annual Fireman’s Parade at Kanazawa Castle Park. Agile firemen dressed in traditional costumes prove their worth with acrobatic stunts atop tall bamboo ladders.

Now I've thought long & hard about posting this for a number of reasons, the main one being if MOTH ever reads it, I'll be seriously looking over @ The Short Wedding Dress Club, for Version 3!!!
You see, I've a confession to make - for the past 4 years I've been faking it in the bedroom! Now, before you all jump to the ENTIRELY WRONG conclusion, let me fill you in. On this occasion it's all about compromise, something honestly I'm not very good at, but 4 years ago I felt obliged to do.

Come On Boots, Start Walking!
Image HearstThe weather here in the Hills has turned Autumnal, with a real chill in the air. As I live in boots for at least 9 months of the year, it's time to start my annual pilgrimage to find a couple of new pairs for the season ahead. Although MOTH can never understand why I can't stretch last year's out to another year. When not in his work Blunnies he lives in his RM's, his current favourite pair were bought just after we met 16 years ago. He'll quite happily tell everyone who queries the state of them & that they may be due for retirement, 'Don't be silly, I've just broken 'em in'! Any favourite boot stories from the Hedgies?

SUBJECT: Your Rooms.
OK, here's the go guys - times are tough & I'm sure you're feeling the fiscal pinch as much as everyone else, but I've got an idea that will turn your business around pronto. Hire uber-cool Italian architect Michele Bonan to redesign all your rooms & you'll have those Chevvies swinging off the highway & into your establishments as quick as lightening. Take a leaf out of the Kafri family's book who did just that & commissioned Michele to design the fit-out of their 2 new Hotels, the JK Place boutique hotels in Florence & Capri. Granted neither of these stunning palazzos have oil-stained parking bays outside each room, but I'm sure Michele can even do something amazing with those. Oh, & those hatches in the wall for the tacky breakfast tray to be noisily slid through..... they'll have to go - not cool boys.
These are a few of my {current} favourite things...
